The Secret is Out!

Baby Fyfe is on it's way!!!!


I figured something was up September 1st. But wasn't late or anything. So we waited. and waited. I started work on the 4th and we waited.  September 5th I couldn't take it any more. I was a whole 2 days late and couldn't stand it! I've never been late so I kinda knew already. So, we got me a pee stick. And the result was there 2 minutes later.

Just a little excited

But we decided to keep it on the D.L. :)
Weeks passed pretty quickly thank goodness and the only problem I had was I was tired all the time! Well until week 5 came. Then food tasted kinda like sand. Yuck. Didn't get to much worse then that. Except for maybe the 3 week period I ate like nothing and lost about 10lbs. (awesome) How you can lose weight when you stomach and boobs are growing is beyond me. (TMI sorry).
I haven't been too sick and I'm counting my blessings that I have still been able to work! Morning sickness. BAH! Evening sickness is where it's at! Don't know how many times Daniel came home to me asleep on the couch. But he survived without me cooking dinner so... we know he can do it! :)

I had my first appointment with Dr. Naude on the 22nd. It was... exciting? Well okay, I got to hear my baby's heartbeat. Then they move on to other things. Not so exciting! But it was awesome to hear that heartbeat and to hear the doctor say everything looks really good!
Then a week and a bit later we get to Today!!!
I got to see my beautiful little baby!
I am 13 weeks!
And Loving life right now!
Sickness is going away and food is becoming awesome once again! (especially fruit!)

Our ultrasound tech was awesome! She was talking and laughing with us about how stubborn this kid is already. Didn't want to show off his profile. Only his back and butt. (takes after Daniel.) We "woke" him up at one point and watched him do some summersalts. Never showing his face! haha talent I know!

*** When we say "him" it's generic. We don't know the gender. We'll find out just before Christmas! What better gift can ya get???***

Look at that cute little butt! :)

Love the feet! they are crossed at the ankles. :) Just chillaxin in my uterus!

and the cute little profile shot we finally got! just before baby rolled back over!

Amazing. Weird to think Baby is really only around the size of a peach but so formed!

Well I'm sure i'll have more posts soon! Yes we'll put up pics of the belly as I get one. :P
And Baby is due
May 11, 2013! :)

Thanksgiving

What a weekend! Sad and glad it's over all at the same time.
My weekend started Friday at 3:15 :) I got home and just vegged (like normal) until the hubby came home.
Saturday I got to sleep in and watch me some conference. Daniel had to go to work (sucker) just for the morning. Daniel got home and shortly after his parents arrived for the weekend. And then Daniel abandoned us yet again to Ref a hockey game. So we put in a movie and chillaxed and then I went to bed. :)
Sunday we lounged for a bit then I went to the church for the morning session of conference and Daniel went to another Hockey game of his. (poop head) So My inlaws and I went to Rommel's house (Daniel's cousin) and visited for a while. And then even longer while my FIL and I waited for the MIL to stop talking. :P no worries. After about 45 mins after we said goodbye we got out. :) oh family.
Then we played some serious gamage and went to bed. :) (so much sleeping. LOVE IT)
Monday we lounged in bed until 9. AMAZING. and then went to Smitty's for breakfast. Delicious! Best Waffles ever! Then lounged around all day while the turkey cooked.
The Low's came over around 4:30 and we put together the rest of the meal and ATE! it was delicious!

****My computer is retarted and didn't straighten the pictures. Tilt your heads. :P****

Daniel eager to eat

Gerald working on the Turkey! So glad I didn't have to make it! Though he makes it look easy! another year perhaps

Delicious food! but I forgot the stuffing in the microwave the whole time. FAIL

Look at all those happy people!

look even I'm there!

Afterwords we played some intense games! Awesome! So glad everyone could come and have a good time!
Next year. . .  I'm all for my Mom making my turkey dinner. . . . hopefully. :)  (though it wasn't as bad as people make it sound!)

Organized Chaos

I woke up this morning and I had butterflies flying around in my tummy. That's how excited/nervous I was for the first day of school. I got out the door by 8:05 and everything was perfect. I was about a block away when I hit some severe traffic. I'm talking I was stuck in my car for ten minutes in front of the school! How lame. I'm tardy for my first day of school! (someone shoulda warned me about the traffic! sheesh) Then I finally make it into the parking lot and the car in front of me starts backing up....and just kept going. I looked behind me saw the all clear and backed up like two feet... but the front car just kept backing up. I honked and they still hit me!!!!!!! IN THE SCHOOL PARKING LOT! (I swear there is a target on my car)

Luckily nothing happened to my poor Stanley. just a little dent under his eye. (some people's kids) So I walked into the school 10 minutes late. Luckily I wasn't the only one. There were a few teachers too who got stuck in the traffic jam!

Got to the room and there are kids galore.

Never noticed this as a kid but on the first day of school the teachers are so out of it! you have no idea what to expect and it's just organized chaos! (exactly). Why the students don't take advantage of it= they are soi excited to be back at school and to be with their teacher! :P HAH! bring on the next week when its not so fun anymore.

Anyway. Made it through the morning. Unpacked supplies. walked the school. had an assembly. Recess. Snack. Lunch!

After lunch I am in a different Grade 4 room. Working one on one with a student.

To sum the afternoon up .... I felt like I was drowning.

Luckily I got lots of help... After school... And we should be able to make it through tomorrow better then today!

:)

...ps tomorrow is Hump Day... is it sad i'm already looking forward to the weekend on Day 1? :P
